The free expression of ideas is a foundational principle of not only Twitter but also of America. Why would posting an innocuous message about an odious candidate merit digital eviction? Because @EastwoodUSA is not Clint Eastwood.

Let's take a step back while we look for proof. While Eastwood has been an outspoken supporter of the Republican Party — and let's not forget his memorable if bizarre speech to an empty chair at the RNC in 2012 — he's not been the all that thrilled with Trump, according to the Washington Post.

Also keep in mind, Eastwood is now 84 years old. What would an octogenarian millionaire be doing tweeting on election night, let alone tweeting Pepe memes?

The real proof though is Eastwood's own daughter, Morgan, who has been trying to debunk @EastwoodUSA as a fake account since she seemingly discovered it last week. She repeatedly notes from her verified account that her father Clint doesn't — and wouldn't know how to — use Twitter.
